Currently, there is a notable gap between the rapid growth of AI technologies and their adoption in advanced nursing education, research, and clinical settings. Barriers include a lack of knowledge, insufficient training opportunities, concerns about ethical AI use, and fear of technology replacing critical-thinking processes. This educational activity a will addresses these gaps by enhancing NP knowledge and competency in AI, providing practical strategies for overcoming common adoption barriers, and emphasizing critical-thinking skills to use AI ethically and effectively.
